I used ouija boards a lot when I was a teenager. I lived in a rather isolated area on a small farm, rather preoccupied with the occult. I won't go into too much detail, but I'll state that, through everything strange that had happened, I was always somewhat skeptical. One thing that really creeped me out, however, was something that used to happen to another person. It was frequently happening for a while that, after/while using a ouija board, this person would enter into a trance-like state. No drugs were ever involved. It was just us in the candle-light, often with music in the background, sometimes incense burning, sitting on the floor of a room in the century-old wooden farmhouse. I would be able to "sense" when she was entering this state. Remember, we were teenagers and we used words like "sense", "energy", and "vibes". It was rather intense though. She would be sitting down cross-legged, her head bowed to the floor, her long curly hair enshrouding her shape in the poorly lit room. I would, as I mentioned, "sense" something, and shortly thereafter, she would emerge from her somewhat sunken position and sometimes slowly, sometimes quickly lift her head up, and look at me like she never had before. She became almost unrecognizable. I mentioned one thing that really got me disconcerted; the fact that she, with the motor skills of someone not used to moving, would reach to her face and remove her glasses. She would then speak to me of things that I would never think the 15 year-old I knew well would be able to conjure or even be aware. In all honesty, I could go on and on, but I'd like to get some discussion going. Any feedback? I'm open to everything.
